Your Task
Step 6: Develop the Policy Review and Modification section of your ISP
In this week’s Lab you will develop the review and modification policy portion of your ISP to ensure it is a ‘living document’. This must include:
At least an annual review
Identification of who is responsible for making updates and revisions
Detail concerning where these updates are published and how employees can access them
Remember that every company is in a constant state of change and your network infrastructure is constantly evolving. The risks that you face today are not the risks that you will encounter next year nor are they the same as those you have encountered in years past.
